Do this if pushing on the brake pedal
does not shift the transmission out of
Park:
Set the Parking brake.
Make sure the ignition switch is in
the LOCK (0) position.
Put a cloth on the edge of the Shift
Lock Release slot cover next to
the shift lever. Using a small flat-
tipped screwdriver or a metal
fingernail file, carefully pry on the
edge of the cover.
Insert the key in the Shift Lock
Release slot.
Push down on the key while you
move the shift lever out of Park to
Neutral.
Remove the key from the shift
lock release slot, then install a new
cover.
Press the brake pedal and restart
the engine.
If you need to use the Shift Lock
Release, it means your vehicle is
developing a problem. Have it
checked by your Acura dealer.
